Dodgem, Alber's Flour, the Boardwalk and the beach

This photograph was given to me by the owner of a small antique store in Alamosa, Colorado, when I was buying a couple of books. I asked him how much he wanted for it and he said "Take it." Looks to me like Coney Island, maybe, or Atlantic City, circa 1925. Maybe one of the guys in suits is Nucky Thompson from "Boardwalk Empire." Click to enlarge and read the ALBER'S FLOUR sign.
